Published in 2017 at "Cell"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2017.08.002

Abstract: Polycomb (PcG) and Trithorax (TrxG) group proteins are evolutionarily conserved chromatin-modifying factors originally identified as part of an epigenetic cellular memory system that maintains repressed or active gene expression states. Recently, they have been shown… read more here.
